Abstract:
A hybrid drive of a motor vehicle having an automated manual transmission with two coaxial input shafts and a common output shaft. The input shafts are respectively driven by an engine and an electric machine and can couple the output shaft via respective groups of gearwheel sets. Each gearwheel set comprises a gear fixed to the associated input shaft and an idler gear supported by respective countershafts. At least two idler gears disposed on one of the two countershafts of two gearwheel sets, within the transmission, assigned to two different input shafts, can be coupled via a winding-path shift element, and the two output constants are disposed in a common radial plane by using a common output gear disposed on the output shaft.
Abstract:
A countershaft-type dual clutch transmission for a vehicle has two clutches having input sides connected to a driveshaft (AN) and output sides connected respectively to one of two transmission input shafts arranged coaxial to a mainshaft axis. A sub-transmission is associated in each instance with the transmission input shafts, at least two countershafts, a plurality of gear planes to which are assigned gear ratio steps, and at least one output shaft which can be connected to the sub-transmissions via an output gear plane. Only six gear planes with at least nine assigned gear ratio steps can be realized via only four double shift elements and at least one single shift element. Each countershaft can be coupled with four gear ratio steps via double shift elements, and one of the transmission input shafts can be coupled with a gear ratio step via a single shift element.
Abstract:
A method of operating a drive-train of a motor vehicle which comprises a hybrid drive with a combustion engine and an electric machine, a clutch connected between the combustion engine and the electric machine, a transmission connected between the electric machine and a drive output, and either a primary retarder connected between the electric machine and the transmission or a secondary retarder connected between the transmission and the drive output. In order to warm up hydraulic oil, when the clutch between the combustion engine and the electric machine is disengaged and a transmission gear is engaged, a braking torque is produced by either the primary or secondary retarder, in the drive-train, and the electric machine is operated in a torque-controlled manner such that it delivers a torque equal to the sum of a target torque determined in accordance with the driver's wish and the braking torque produced by either the primary or secondary retarder.
Abstract:
A hybrid drive manual transmission, for a motor vehicle, having two input shafts (GE1, GE2) and one common output shaft. The first shaft (GE1) can connect with a combustion engine drive shaft and can drive the output shaft via a first group of gearwheel sets. The second shaft (GE2) can connect with an electric machine and, via a second group of gearwheel sets, the output shaft. The input shafts (GE1, GE2) can connect with one another via a coupling device. For inexpensive production, the transmission is derived from a double clutch transmission having a hollow input shaft (GE2) and a coaxial inner input shaft (GE1) and a coupling device of which comprises a gear step and/or a shiftable clutch, which replaces that gearset and associated gear clutch. The gearset of the underlying double clutch transmission is allocated to first input shaft (GE1) and adjacent the gear-side end of shaft (GE2).
Abstract:

The first input shaft can be connected to the drive shaft of an internal combustion engine by a clutch and can be brought into a drive connection to the output shaft by a first group of shiftable gearwheel sets. The second input shaft has a drive connection to the rotor of an electric machine, which can operate as a motor and a generator, and can be brought into a drive connection with the output shaft by a second group of selectively shiftable gearwheel sets. The input shafts can be coupled by coupling-shift element. The hybrid drive is provided with a second electric machine, which can operate as a motor and a generator and has a rotor that can be connected to the first input shaft.
Abstract:
A method of operating a drive-train having a drive aggregate comprising an electric machine and internal combustion engine. An automated variable-speed transmission is connected between the engine and a drive output. The electric machine couples, via a friction clutch, a shaft of the transmission. Gearshifts are carried out in the transmission with an interruption of the drive torque provided by the drive aggregate in such manner that first the drive torque, provided at the output, is reduced to zero, then the actual gearshift is carried out, and then the drive torque, at the output, is again built up. To accomplish the gearshift, after disengaging a current gear and before engaging a target gear, the shaft of the transmission, which couples the electric machine via the friction clutch, is synchronized utilizing the inertial mass of the electric machine.

A method of controlling and/or regulating a hybrid drive system of a vehicle, with at least one internal combustion engine and at least one electric machine which can be coupled to the input shaft of an automated transmission, at least some of the time, by at least one clutch to facilitate driving of the vehicle such that at least one energy accumulator is charged by the electric machine which is operated as a generator and driven by the internal combustion engine. The electric machine is a synchronizer machine that is continually energized by maintaining a nominal speed of the synchronizer machine below an inflexion speed (n_Eck) during the charging process.
Abstract:
A process of operating a motor vehicle drive train that comprises at least one hybrid drive having a combustion engine and an electric motor with a clutch connected between the combustion engine and the electric motor, and an automatic transmission is arranged between the hybrid drive and an output. The process including the step of disengaging the clutch to carry out a shift, after a reduction of load at the internal combustion engine and after a reduction of the torque that is transmitted between the internal combustion engine and the electric motor. Subsequently carrying out a gear shift by the automatic transmission and, thereafter, increasing the torque that is transmitted by the clutch. Increasing the load from the combustion engine, and optionally engaging the clutch. A load transfer by the electric motor occurs before and/or after the gear shift in the transmission is carried out.
